I talked to the owner....he bought from a friend, without the deck, after it fell out the bed of his pickup truck while driving 60 mph.....he and his Dad spent a couple years trying to find a deck for it.....the only thing good on it is probably the motor and the tranny

I find it hard to believe his tailgate latch failed, and his doubled-up [2] straps broke in unison.

Truth be known it was probably a lifted up, Diesel pickup with 12 inch dia. exhaust stacks hogging the front 1/3 of the bed so he couldn't close his tailgate. Then he decided to "roll coal" and impress someone.
